    Introducing an older rooster to young pullets

    I have 10 ten to eleven week old pullets and a frizzle Batam Cochin rooster. I would like to introduce another rooster to our flock for breeding and protection. I have a feeling out frizzle rooster won’t do the job 😂 the rooster I am thinking of introducing is a 8 month old rooster. What do you...

    Help ! Swollen eye.

    I have a ten week old bantam rooster, who is already smaller than he should be (he hatched out that way). Yesterday I woke up and went to water and feed and noticed his eye had swelled up HUGE! The eyelid won’t even shut all the way, I immediately flushed it out with saline and put terramycin in...

    Sick and very lethargic chicken

    My EE bantam roo started acting off about a week ago. He seemed to have less interest in interacting with the other chickens, which is very unusual for him. It started getting worse a few days ago so I brought him inside. He’s eating only a bit, and i’m giving him water through an eye dropper...

    Can anyone take Brian?

    I have the sweetest Welsummer rooster we call Brian. Hatched him about 6 months ago. He's lovely, but my lead rooster hates him, and it's only a matter of time before there's trouble. I'm in the San Fernando valley in LA. Anybody know of anywhere he might be rehomed?

    Roosters or Hens - 6 weeks old. Are all 3 roosters?!

    One of our chickens went broody and ended up surprising us with 3 new chicks! They are 6 weeks old in two days. I’ve read that at 6 weeks hens shouldn’t have a very developed comb or wattle, but all 3 of these do! Is it possible/likely at all 3 are roosters, or is this normal? We would be very...
